HOTEL BLUE is your perfect home base in the Blue Mountains. After a day spent discovering all the Mountains have to offer, return to our spacious GUEST LOUNGE and sink into a comfortable are chair, bask in front of a roaring log fire in the open fireplace during the winter months, enjoy a game of pool or cards, or unwind in our INDOOR SWIMMING POOL & HEATED SPA. Refresh yourself with a relaxing drink in our intimate PARLOUR BAR, featuring a wide selection of beers, wines and spirits, and particularly showcasing the produce of regional wineries and breweries. Our elegant in-house SISTERS BLUE RESTAURANT offers fine modern Australian cuisine, with an ever-evolving menu, while our vibrant street-side CAFÉ 88 is a great place for a relaxing cup of coffee.
Allow yourself to step back into yesteryear, amidst the rich art-deco style furnishings. Ornate chandeliers, velvet flocked wallpaper, beautiful antique furniture, richly embellished ceilings and hand-carved timber panelling, with old-time jazz and blues tunes playing in the background, give HOTEL BLUE its unique ambience, reminiscent of days gone by.
CONVENIENTLY SITUATED mid-way between the centre of Katoomba and the world-famous THREE SISTERS, Hotel Blue is the perfect base from which to explore Katoomba and soak up the majestic beauty of the Mountains. No matter where you venture, Hotel Blue won’t be far away, being only five minutes’ walk from Katoomba’s central SHOPPING and DINING district, ten minutes from KATOOMBA RAILWAY STATION, and only ten minutes’ stroll from Echo Point’s World Heritage-listed views of the iconic Three Sisters and the BLUE MOUNTAINS NATIONAL PARK.
At the end of the evening, our comfortable GUEST ROOMS await you, each equipped with a private en suite, Foxtel satellite television channels, tea- and coffee-making facilities, fridge and heater. WIFI ACCESS is also available throughout Guest Rooms and Hotel public areas.
YOUR BLUE MOUNTAINS
Hotel Blue is just 10 minutes' walk down the street from Echo Point Look-out with its world-famous views of the Three Sisters. Echo Point is the starting point for endless kilometres of walking tracks in all directions, ranging from leisurely cliff-top strolls with spectacular views of the mountains and valleys, to more challenging walks which will reward you with glimpses of the many lush rainforest pockets, cascading waterfalls and towering ancient forests.
To explore the rainforest in a more leisurely fashion, take a short stroll from Echo Point to SCENIC WORLD. The Scenic Railway, the world's steepest incline passenger railway, will take you from the cliff tops down to the depths of the rainforest, where you can wander amongst the majestic towering trees and explore the relics of the historic coalmines. Then you can glide back up through the treetops on the Cableway. A ride across the gorge in the glass-bottomed Skyway carriage, suspended 270 metres above Katoomba Falls, will let you experience some of the most spectacular views of the Blue Mountains.
The Blue Mountains have long been a favourite haunt of artists, writers and musicians. Katoomba is a hub of creative activity, that not only attracts those who find their inspiration amidst the serenity of the deep blue hills, but also draws travellers who come from near and far to explore the myriad of antique and vintage emporiums, wander through the local art galleries and enjoy the thriving live music scene.
To help you get as much as possible out of your stay in the Blue Mountains, Hotel Blue offers a variety of tailored packages, with inclusions such as Explorer Bus tickets to get you to all the local attractions and back to the Hotel again, guided tours of the world-renowned Jenolan Caves, and passes for Scenic World’s spectacular Skyway, Railway and Scenic Cableway rides, taking in the best views the Jamison Valley has to offer. We can also arrange outdoor and adventure activities such as guided scenic and eco tours, bushwalking, horse riding, mountain biking, abseiling, rock climbing and canyoning. You can select from a range of activities and attractions when you book your room or package. Hotel Blue’s friendly staff can also advise you on all the local attractions and arrange bookings upon request.
If you’re looking to surprise someone special, let us have a box of fine chocolates awaiting you in your room from the Blue Mountains Chocolate Company, or perhaps a bouquet of flowers or a bottle of Australian sparkling wine. Just select a little something special as an extra when you book your room or package.

Our facilities can accommodate up to 40 delegates in a Board Room set-up, or up to 80 delegates in a Lecture-style set-up.
Full-day and half-day conference packages are available, and include room hire, lunch, and morning and/or afternoon tea.
